This is a classic early 1950s day dress in a great print - these are not easy to find. The shirtwaist style is tweaked with a curvy pointed collar and perky short sleeves. The full skirt is softly pleated into the waist seam.

FABRIC/COLORS: A geometric print in dark turquoise against a white background. The turquoise squares are designed to look like bold paint strokes, complete with streaks and jagged edges. They are arranged in patterns that alternate between vertical and horizontal. The fabric itself is a medium weight cotton.

TAGS: Mode O Day, Styled in California

CLOSURES: The dress opens completely in front, closes with eight oversized white buttons. There is also a single snap just above the waist, most likely added after-market to prevent gaping. There is a belt loop but no belt - I have shown the dress in some photos with a belt from my closet - it is not included with purchase.

CONDITION: The teal color has blurred slightly in the right underarm area -see closeup. A former owner did some minor seam repair work under both arms using a sewing machine - you can see in the closeups that it was not expertly done, resulting in some very minor seam creasing - fabric is intact. There is also a subtle 1" tannish discoloration along the edge of the bodice placket - see second closeup. No other issues noted.

low-maintenance shirt that fits perfectly
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
This COOFANDY Casual Button Down is a fantastic addition to a summer wardrobe, offering both great fit and high quality. The material is impressively wrinkle-free, which keeps it looking sharp and crisp even after a full day of wear. It is specifically designed to be worn untucked, and the length is just right—offering a modern, relaxed silhouette that doesn't look sloppy. The fabric feels durable yet breathable, making it comfortable for both casual outings and slightly dressier occasions. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance shirt that fits perfectly right out of the wash, this is an excellent choice.

My husband loves these shirts
Color: Dark Blue, Size: Large
My husband just loves these shirts. He has one in every color, I think. Great quality, good price, breathable, true to color, and super comfy. Nice enough to wear to a nice dinner but can be dressed down w a pair of shorts and flip flops. By far the best find I have found!

Shrink-wrapped shirt???
Color: Clear Blue, Size: X-Large
This shirt arrived in a vacuum packed clear package which caused wrinkles in the synthetic material. Instructions to remove the wrinkles are to run the shirt through a wash cycle. Well, that didn't work! I'm hoping a dry cleaning service can steam press the wrinkles out. Aside from that issue it is a very nice shirt. Sizing good. Fabric thickness and material are very good. Because it is made from polyester and spandex shrinkage will not be an issue.
